Ed, I think you're right.  After all, no one has ever died on an 
Inspiration, and the newspapers are full of people who have croaked 
using the DIR method.  I think I'll sell all my DIR gear and just get 
an inspiration.

In all seriousness, just look at the death toll.  That number alone 
should make it clear why your little joke about DIR is not funny, and 
why people call it the Buddy desperation or the Buddy Expiration.

I believe the death toll is at 12 now, on the Inspiration.

I don't need much more than this:

Buddy Inspiration : 12
DIR : Zero


Next....
